IN BRIEF
Diamond Roofing to boost export sales
Diamond Roofing Tiles Plc aims to increase its exports to 10 per cent of sales from the current 5 per cent after a drop in domestic demand.
Diamond's director Satid Sudbuntad said that the company's domestic sales had slowed in line with the same in the property sector. The company recorded sales of Bt594 million and a net profit Bt77.9 million in the first quarter. - The Nation.
Vodka importer bullish on prospects The exclusive importer of Finlandia Vodka, Brown-Forman Thailand, expects its sale of the Finnish alcohol to grow 20 per cent this year. The company thinks that Finlandia will outperform the rest of the white-spirit market, which is projected to grow 14 per cent this year. It will do this through marketing activities aimed at consumers and bartenders, said Alan Anastacio, Brown-Forman's regional commercial manager. It also hopes to juice up sales with its new flavour, Mango Fusion, which has sold well in Thai duty-free shops. - The Nation.
